Los Angeles Rams
On March 17, 2022, Robinson signed a three year, $46 million dollar contract with the Los Angeles Rams.[122]Noteboom’s contract.
Notice that they gave him a big signing bonus then stretched it out with 2 void years. So they gave him a low cap number for 2022 (3.5 M) with a low salary (1.5 M), but also gave him 10 M in bonus money. He does not become a real cap hit until 2023. When he does get a real cap hit in 23, it’s very reasonable for a starting LOT (15.5 M).
